Trauma within the LGBTQIA+ Community

Listen and learn about trauma and its impact on the LGBTQIA+ community.

“One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say.”- Bryant McGill

In this learning session, learners will listen and learn about trauma and its impact on the LGBTQIA+ community. Trauma can happen to anyone at any time. Trauma affects all races, ethnicities, religions, cultures, histories, genders, locations, and languages.  Learners will explore the history of the LGBTQIA+ community and learn strategies they can incorporate into their daily practice to support LGBTQIA+ individuals in living, growing, and thriving within the community.  Disclaimer: The different variations of LGBTQIA+ used in this article reflect the language used in the resources used to provide support.

Learners will receive a certificate for professional learning time after completing the course survey. If continuing education or professional learning is required for licensing purposes, please reach out to your organization or institution to ensure they will accept the certificate.
